Lets be honest. Part of why I'm posting this grab of a Regenderized Liberal Serving is to take another look at Mary's (near-)scandalousness. Aside from the de-gaying of "oh Mary," regender makes my blog more sexist, not less. ("Proof of male superiority!"), though I'd appreciate it if all gay stereotypes replaced "oh mary" with "oh mark," if only for variety. Seriously, let the stereotypes evolve - every image of queers I see on the teevee is 10 years passee. If you're going to spew hegemonic homophobia, at least keep it au courant.
A better use of regender is de-bullshitting Mens New Daily. Best would be extinguishing their whiny faux-victimhood (whatever evil genius invented the myth of straight white guy victimization should be tarred and feathered. Or forced to watch every Oprah episode where she looks in the face of oppression with an air of smug self-congratulation), but "Radical Masculist" certainly satisfies and itch.
